:1,5,11,13,55,65,143,715
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 194,715 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 194,715 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 972,752
2 | 972, 752 |
2 | 486, 376 |
243, 188 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 243 x 188 = 182736
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/182736
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 194/972,715/752 is 1/182736
The formula of LCM is LCM(a1,a2,a3....,an) = ( a1 × a2 × a3 × .... × an) / GCF(a1,a2,a3....,an) x common factors(if more than 2 numbers have common factors).
We need to calculate greatest common factor of 972,752 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(972,752) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(972,752) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(972,752) = ( 972 × 752 ) / 4
LCM(972,752) = 730944 / 4
LCM(972,752) = 182736
